BRAINERD LAKES AREA, MN

Amazing grace

Our client needed a guest house designed as part of a larger family campus in the Brainerd Lakes area of northern Minnesota. Storms had taken out the previous guest home, so the challenge was to design a comfortable, cozy, cottage-like space with an indoor - outdoor feel. After all, lake life is about enjoying the great outdoors. Our client had a lots of ideas about the space, including wanting a lot of sunlight coming in and home that would make the people in it feel at peace. You’d never guess that this guest home is just 900 square feet! Purposeful, thoughtful architectural design made it happen. She loves it so much, she ended up naming it Amazing Grace.
